Play By Ear - Ear Training
Screenshots
Play By Ear is a call-and-response ear training application that helps you develop the ability to hear pitches and play them back on your instrument by ear. Unlike other applications which force you to press buttons to indicate the notes you've heard, Play By Ear uses pitch recognition so you can play the notes back on your instrument (piano, guitar, trumpet, etc). Using your instrument to play the notes allows you to practice ear training in a method that most closely matches how you'll actually play music.
----------------------
APPLICATION FEATURES:
----------------------
- Pitch recognition so you can use your instrument to interact with the ear trainer
- Hands-free, continuous play

Wyobirder, 26.05.2016Easy app to useThis app is helping me with intervals. It also won't register a correct pitch if I chip it slightly on my horn. Easy to use too.
